Christians And Politics by tctrills: 8:55am On Jul 11, 2022 |
I make this post so that all Christians would realize that it was we Christians that made the world a better place. I use to tell people that if Jesus Christ came today and not 2000 years ago, he wouldn't have been crucified. Thanks to Christianity we now have freedom of speech and civil rights. This was fought for by Christians in Europe and America. Slavery was stopped by Christians. Before then, every religion believed it was right to enslave other human beings. Christians have made the world better and safer than it had ever been. So please don't forget your Christian values as you vote and choose candidates to support. We are the religion that made the difference. We are the light of the world. Without us, the world would still be in slavery. There would be no human rights and man would be of little worth. Thanks to Christian nations the entire world is a better place. Never forget who we are and what we have given to the world. The blood of many good men have been shed to bring light to the world. Involve yourselves with the politics of the time and always stand for what is best. We do not live in a perfect world but we do make it better. |

This coming election, I would not ask you to vote for Christian leaders rather vote for the best person's according to your conscience. It is a sin to knowingly vote for evil men just because of tribal sentiments. Let all Christians queue behind good and just men according to our best judgement. |

Yes o.... As a Christian I gave learnt, if you don't do politics, Politics will do you.... |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 2:11pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:Yet according to Jesus Christ, the Christ in Christianity, there are no such Christian Nations, Christian leaders, etc. Your votes cast for men and systems of this world have absolutely nothing to do with God since that which you do you do as people who live in this world and not as citizens of the Kingdom of God. So how did you react the conclusion in bold? |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 3:30pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:Your vote cast has so much to do for the betterment of mankind. Anything that makes your life and that of your fellows better is God's plan. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 3:49pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:Who send you betterment of mankind? The same Jesus Christ that said He came to save only a few and not the many? I think you err against God when you pretend your votes have an impact of sorts on His plan and goal as far as His Kingdom. Cast your votes instead as citizens of this world would. |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 3:53pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:When good men are in power the people rejoice. Jesus Christ taught us to do good to other hence we need leaders that would do good. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 3:54pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:What good men? Good by whose standard? |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 3:55pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:All good is the same. Abraham Lincoln ended slavery, that was good, it blessed lives. |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 3:57pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:Jesus taught us to give to the poor. We need leaders that lift the poor not those that step on the poor |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:04pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:Jesus Christ didn't say our giving to the poor was dependent on the schemes of the leaders of this world though. It didn't matter the economic situation in the land when Jesus Christ fed thousands with bread and fish. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:06pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:But Jesus Christ didn't end slavery yet He blessed lives. Are you saying what He did is the same as what Lincoln did? If so, why bother with Jesus Christ at all? |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:12pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:Jesus Christ did not solve all the problems on earth hence we have more work to do. Are you against the abolition of slavery? |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:14pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:Unless you believe it is right for a man to force his fellow man to serve him and live under his orders, then you must agree that these Christain leaders did great things. God is very proud of them. |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:18pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:To you, which is better, to give arms to the poor or to reduce poverty? |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:37pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:To Obey that which is commanded of me is better than all of that combined. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:38pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:More work that Jesus Christ intended for you to do or more work that the world convinces you there is to do? |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:39pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:What does that have to do with the topic. Good leaders make the world a better place. You are able to preach your gospel in peace and safety because someone fought for religious freedom. We need more men like that. |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:40pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:The bible says he went about doing good. We need leaders that do good |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:42pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:Again, there are no such thing as a Christian leader. I don't believe in the world and the schemes of men at all, instead I believe in God |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:43pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:If you are a Christian and you are a leader, you are a Christian leader, simple definition. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:44pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:The word Christian is reason why I came in on this. 2. Even while in captivity, we are meant to preach Jesus Christ and HIS Kingdom. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:46pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:Jesus Christ went about doing good in compliance with God's standard of good, something you leaders are incapable of. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 4:49pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:The term itself is an oxymoron for you cannot be a Christian an a leader at the same time. |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:57pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:you can |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 4:59pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:Is it good to enslave others? Is it good to take away people's freedom of speech? Is it good to embezzle pubic funds? Is it good to help the masses? Is it good to improve standard of living? Is it good to educate the kids |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 5:03pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:What standard of good are you trying to enforce here? Man's or God's? |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 5:05pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:Are you saying that you don't give a damn if people are enslaved? You don't care if people are starving? Do long as you are allowed to preach your gospel, you are ok, let the people suffer? |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 5:06pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:According to Gods standard is it good for us to go about enslaving others? |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 5:35pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:1. Who says I am not? 2. The reason for all this suffering is man's decision to go it alone, without God. |
Re: Christians And Politics by Kobojunkie: 5:37pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
tctrills:God said the way to help in all is to trust and obey Him, not your casting of votes or looking up to men. |
Re: Christians And Politics by tctrills: 5:39pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:You are doing your best not to answer the question, smart guy |
